The SMV1232-SMV1237 series of silicon hyperabrupt junction varactor diodes are designed for use in VCOs with low tuning voltage operation. The low resistance of these varactors makes them appropriate for high Q resonators in wireless system VCOs to frequencies beyond 2.5 GHz.
The Alpha SMV1232-SMV1237 series consists of silicon hyperabrupt junction varactor diodes designed for use in Voltage-Controlled Oscillators (VCOs) with low tuning voltage operation. These components are characterized for low series resistance, making them suitable for high Q resonators in wireless system VCOs operating beyond 2.5 GHz.
